[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 374644, member: 5079"] Some of the comments from crew members of TROG, quoted in the Wiki article, are curious. The director recalled Joan being a sad old lady, drunk and unable to perform without cue cards. The actor who played the title character completely contradicted both that Joan was drunk or needed "idiot cards". If you read about a person enough, you pick up differing perspectives; shades of grey interpretations that are still, usually, cohesive. Opinions on Joan are almost schizophrenically black or white. It happens over & over in accounts of her life and career: two people with the same experience with her giving completely different accounts. If nothing else, it makes me wonder what RASHOMON effect Crawford had on people. [/QUOTE]
